The 14Karat Cabaret Presents

RAHNE ALEXANDER
Rahne Alexander uses found footage to summon Hollywood's subconscious obsessions to the surface. “Let's Get Out Of Here” pinpoints the repetitive use of cinema's most-used line. “Equal+Opposite” focuses on the long history of visceral reactions of film protagonists to gender-variant bodies. and “Technicolor Yawn” serves as a light-hearted endurance test for the viewer's autonomic responses. Alexander's film collages have been screened in galleries and festivals across the country, including Freewaves (LA), MIX (NYC), Threat Level (Chicago), Homoscope (Austin) and Trannyfest (SF). She co-founded the garage rock band The Degenerettes and is also an organizer with Baltimore's Transmodern art festival, the Charm City Kitty Club and the Maryland Film Festival.

REBECCA NAGEL
Rebecca's performative, interative and community art projects challenge people around issues of intimacy, the body, power, boundaries and efficacy. She is currently trying to make the world a more open, equitable and creative place through community organizing and radical performance art. Back from a whirlwind tour of the east coast Rebecca will be unveiling a new gender bending, trapeze, contortion, violent death duo routine featuring Jonathan Rochkind on accordian!

THE DAN MEYER CHOIR
The Dan Meyer Choir members are upright Baltimore folks who gather once a week to sing songs about everything from hometown hookers, to cannibals in Australia, to Calvin Coolidge’s trip to a chicken farm. Dan Meyer is the resident composer, director and founder of the choir. Major funding for The Dan Meyer Choir is provided by Dan’s royalties as a church music composer for GIA Publications, and the tips he earns as accompanist for Baltimore cabaret artiste Roxi Starr.

THE FRONTIER DENTISTS
The Frontier Dentists are guitarist Sean Lally, vocal diva Melissa Ultra Sharlat, John Breitmeyer on drums, bassist Caryll Campbell and guitar/harmonica/vocalist/songwriter Lee Connah whipping up a mix of tunes to tap your toes and make you sigh.
